2010/11/9 "Jóhann B. Guðmundsson" <johannbg@xxxxxxxxx>: > I suppose Red Hat could easially weaken such claims by simply stop > appointing members to anything within the community The only thing that's appointed within the community by Red Hat in any capacity is 4 members of the Board. It's quite important to note that Red Hat does *not* exclusively appoint employees to the Board, I am not and never have been a Red Hat employee and currently hold an appointed Board seat, Nor do I have any financial ties to Red Hat, do not own any stock in them (and for reasons unrelated to Fedora am actually precluded from doing so, but that's totally irrelevant in this context). The composition of the Board has been a topic of discussion, but we see no compelling reason to change it - no one has come to us and said "the Board such as it exists is broken and can't function, and here's specific reasons why, and specific actions to improve those reasons". When/if someone does do that, we'd certainly be willing to entertain discussions on whatever change might be required. _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
